Patent EP-0347933-B1 (EP)
Inventor: MARDER VICTOR J
IPC: G01N33/577
Filed: 1989-06-23
Granted: 1994-09-14
Abstract: This invention relates to an assay for fibrin polymers for use in the diagnosis of patients at risk of thrombosis and in monitoring the effects of treatment in such patients. More particularly, the present invention relates to an assay for soluble crosslinked fibrin polymers in patient samples involving the in vitro treatment of the sample wit a proteolytic enzyme such as t-PA which generates the D-dimer fragment of soluble fibrin polymers. The amount of D-dimer formed is determined, preferably, by an immunoassay specific for D-dimer. The measurement of D-dimer is thus a useful reflection of the hypercoagulability state and the test may be useful for assessing pre-thrombotic or thrombotic disorders such as myocardial infarction, pulmonary embolism and deep vein thrombosis, as well as for soluble fibrin formation in neoplastic, immune, inflammatory states, or other pathologic conditions, and for evaluations of therapy such as with anticoagulants that are used to treat these conditions.

Title: A continuous paper and the like delivery mechanism
IPC: A47K10/36
Filed: 1989-03-30
Granted: 1993-03-10
Abstract: The transmission from the shaft (2a) of one of the rollers (2) trapping the paper band (3) to the blocking mechanism (24,25,26,27) is performed by means of two sets of sprockets (16,17;18,19) of different diameter and meshing selectively and alternately with one another. The shaft (20) of one set of sprockets (18,19) carries mounted thereon the cam (22) which loads the spring (23) for triggering the mechanism delivering a short run of paper band (3). The outlet opening (29) for the paper band (3a) has a cutter blade (30) at one of its borders to sever the band. It is possible to regulate the length of the delivered paper band by changing the position of the sprockets (16,17) as regards the sprockets (18,19). The automatic mechanism for delivering the short band run is thereby simplified.

Abstract: In a system for transmitting a binary source signal from a data transmitter to a data receiver through a noisy dispersive channel, the data transmitter comprises a sliding block encoder which converts the binary source signal at a given symbol rate 1/T into an encoded binary data signal at a symbol rate P/TN, where P and N are positive integers such that N/P </= <2>log(3)/2 + 0.79248. Since the channel introduces intersymbol interference and noise into the encoded data signal, the data receiver comprises the cascade of a equalizer, a sampler and a reconstruction circuit which serves to reconstruct the binary source signal at the symbol rate 1/T. The improved reconstruction circuit consists of a detector in a cascade with a decoder with a decoder with memory, while the equalizer, sampler and detector are arranged for the detection of a ternary data signal at the symbol rate P/(2NT).

Abstract: A moulding is produced from thermosetting melamine resin foam by treating the foam with a thermosetting binder and moulding it hot. Pref. binders are phenolic or melamine resin in various forms. - Foam sheeting (2) is fed into two counter-rotating rollers (5,6) via guides, the gap between (5) and (6) being less than the foam (2) thickness. Foamed binder (3) is fed in also from supply tubes (7,8). The action of the rollers (5,6) applies the binder (3) on to the main foam (2). A device (9) traps excess binder. When the foam leaves the rollers (5,6) it expands again to its original thickness, and surfacing mats (10,11) can then be applied if desired. If the mats are used the assembled materials are passed through two more counter-rotating rollers (12,13) and the flat product is cut into lengths. These are finally hot press moulded to desired shape.
